Late at night, Gobi Desert.
Gu Chengshu, who was climbing up the sand dune, suddenly paused.
She seemed to be getting closer to the moon with every step she took before, but she knew that approach was not a real approach.
but now……
Looking at the looming steps on the top of the dune, she paused in her heart, then picked up her sword and climbed up step by step.
One step, two steps..., ten steps, twenty steps...
The footsteps felt so real, it really didn't look like a mirage.
Gu Chengshu exhaled and inhaled for a long time, and finally sped up.
On the other side, unable to stay in the spiritual tent, he tightened his tight-fitting thick fur cloak and finally walked out.
The first thing it saw was the moon.
But when he saw the person walking up the stairs, Taijie couldn't help but rub his eyes.
This...isn't right!
"Quick! Come out here, everyone."
Taijie shouted repeatedly and rushed towards the sand dune that might be connected to the moon.
Just say something is wrong here!
"There is a huge opportunity here!"
It must be chance.
The time is wrong here.
"It may be the treasure of time. Hurry up."
If we don't hurry up, the female cultivator will snatch it away.
This is too outrageous and intolerable.
They were brought here by her and were freezing to death. Why did she discover them first by chance?
Even if she discovered it first, they would still have to snatch it away.
The treasure of time!
This kind of treasure cannot be made by a master of weapon refining.
It is basically the natural birth of a realm. This secret realm of heaven is moving towards perfection, maybe...
No wonder the Gobi Desert has changed.
Taijie was very excited.
Is God finally going to take care of them?
As long as they master the avenue of time, where can they go in all directions in the universe?
Taijie believed that it was the owner of the treasure of time.
"Hurry! Hurry up."
Looking up and seeing the man running towards the moon, all the Yuegui who came out were excited.
Although the forbidden spirit and consciousness are forbidden, there is still a treasure!
Under the cold moonlight, Taijie was alone in front, followed closely by the Yuegui.
For a moment, all the coldness was no longer cold.
Gu Chengshu saw them.
She wanted to run faster.
But the higher you go, the heavier the pressure becomes.
His originally light body seemed to have become heavier.
"You can't run away."
Walking in the frozen desert is ten thousand times easier than during the day.
Taijie took the lead and rushed to the faint steps first.
However, Wu Sheng and the others still learned from the past, and it did not rush forward immediately, "The rare treasure here belongs to me."
Otherwise, we wouldn't be so close to them.
Although I don’t know how the female cultivator who should have run away for more than a hundred miles appeared here, the treasure here can only be hers.
"Hurry up! Hurry up! Xiao Long, you go first."
Xiao Long: "..."
It's a little scary.
But the Demon King wanted it to go up first, and the steps were not wide, so it was impossible to pull another one up, so it had to go up first.
Xiao Long strode forward.
"What are you doing standing still?"
Taijie glared at the people below, "Come on."
Even if that female cultivator is very powerful, how many people can she beat by herself?
Taijie counted his clan members and ran for fifty before it caught up.
At the far end, every step of the female cultivator was extremely slow, but they could still run.
Sure enough, the treasure here should be theirs.
"Hurry up, hurry up, hurry up for me."
Being in the 51st position, it is not only urging the people above it
, also urging the people below.
"By the way, where are Zhuquan and the others? Call me quickly."
Zhu Quan was asked to lead people to find the female cultivator, but they disappeared, but they came looking for them with swords.
"Zhu Quan! Your Excellency calls you."
"Zhu Quan! The master is calling you!"
"Zhu Quan..."
Late at night, a group of Yuegui shouted in unison. Not only Zhu Quan heard it, but Gu Chengshu also heard it.
She couldn't help but turn her head.
According to the squad leader, Zhu Quan is the senior captain.
And is there another demon king here?
Gu Chengshu used the sword as a crutch and leaned up.
Tuantuan stretched out his little head in her arms. For a moment, it felt like it was Cheng Shu's burden, very, very heavy.
"Tuan Tuan, don't stick your head out, just hide it."
Although the current Moon Slayers are fast, after a while, they will know how powerful they are.
"Meow~"
Tuantuan jumped down.
However, it originally wanted to save some effort and jump up the two steps, but unexpectedly, there seemed to be resistance in the air, and it was pushed to Gu Chengshu's feet.
round and round:"……"
It was confused.
"Aren't you allowed to come out?"
Gu Chengshu tried hard to adjust her breathing, "Be good, come in again."
"Meow~"
Tuantuan jumped forward and climbed a step.
Although it feels harder to walk than usual, it is still within the bearable range.
"Meow meow~"
With its forbidden spirit and forbidden consciousness, it couldn't speak for a moment, so it could only tell her with practical actions, "I can do it."
"Okay! If you're tired, come up and have a rest."
Tired and hot from climbing the stairs, Gu Chengshu simply put the thick fur cloak into her storage bag and said, "Tuan Tuan, do you want a drink of water?"
"Meow~"
It just started to go.
Tuantuan jumped up another step.
Gu Chengshu took a few sips of spiritual spring water before lifting his feet again.
Underneath, Zhu Quan and his group of Yuegui, who were alarmed by the shouts of hundreds of tribesmen, finally emerged from the makeshift sand hole.
"my God……"
It is obvious that the consciousness and spiritual power cannot be moved, but why in the sky...
"Quick, quick, catch up."
Zhu Quan was startled and hurried back.
Although I don’t know how there are steps in the sky, of course they can’t just watch as everyone is on them.
After a while, Yuegui's team hung long in the air.
The people below were running very fast, but the people above... were already as slow as a snail.
Gu Chengshu has gone from taking a rest at the tenth level to taking a rest at the third level.
Tuantuan is not much better.
The sky is above, the earth is below, and they are in mid-air.
It is difficult to move forward and there is no way back.
Without spiritual support, if you jump down...
Gu Chengshu shook off this thought and poured a few more sips of spiritual wine into his mouth, "Come on, let's go."
Tuantuan was one step ahead of her and jumped up a step.
The moon seems to be a circle bigger than before.
The faint black spots in it look like some kind of palace now.
Gu Chengshu took a long breath and walked quickly three steps under invisible pressure.
It seems...the moon has grown bigger again.
"Do you want to eat fish?"
Looking back at Yue Gui, who was still a hundred steps away from her, Gu Chengshu sat down again and simply took out a box of dried fish.
Uncle Yu helped prepare this.
It's crispy, crispy and fragrant.
Gu Chengshu fell in love with it at first sight, "Eat, we have to maintain good physical strength."
Anyway, she just needs to be in front of them.
At this time, Yuegui at the front had already landed on the ground with all four paws and was climbing up.
It's so, the back...
Gu Chengshu and Tuantuan were eating fish and resting, feeling that they were much worse than them.
After eating and drinking, the other party didn't climb ten steps.
Haha, it’s more difficult up here!
Gu Chengshu and Tuantuan turned around with difficulty and continued up.
Taijie, who was still on all fours, was in a bad mood.
Step by step, it already knew something was wrong here.
But - they all climbed here.
It was urging me at first, but now it has stopped speaking.
When the person in front rests, it rests too.
Gu Chengshu and Tuantuan worked hard to climb up the four steps. However, when they stared at the moon again this time, they always felt that the faint palace was not in the moon, but that it and its position were in a straight line.
So if it's not in a straight line, it can't be seen?
Phew~
Gu Chengshu didn't feel very good. After taking a long breath, she climbed up two more steps.
"Stand up and I'll pull you up."
Gu Chengshu threw up the lapel of her clothes to Xiao Tuantuan.
"..."
Tuantuan looked up at the steps that it had to work very hard to jump up, and finally climbed onto Gu Chengshu's lapel.
"Meow~"
It came up without any effort at all.
"Let's do this!"
Gu Chengshu rubbed the little guy's head.
At this time, she had sweat on her forehead.
But he didn't dare to stop.
Once the moon and the looming palace are not in line, this step may collapse.
At least during the day, she passed by here without seeing it.
Gu Chengshu climbed up two by two.
Each time you advance, the palace becomes a little bigger and clearer.
One person and one cat soon opened up the distance between them.
Xiao Long, who was wheezing and panting, felt dizzy while crawling.
It had to stop and get itself something to eat.
Sitting on the steps, it didn't care about Master Taijie who was walking in the 51st place.
It's really tiring here.
It believes that the Demon King can understand.
Speaking of which, the human race's spiritual noodles steamed buns are really good, delicious and chewy, full of grain flavor.
Xiao Long cherishes every bite of his spiritual food, but what he envies most now is Wu Sheng's former team.
Wu Sheng was dead and no one called them, but the movement here obviously attracted them, and now they were almost at the steps.
"Don't come up, just stay down there."
Xiao Long really wanted to shout this sentence below.
But, I don’t have the guts.
The Demon King didn't say anything.
Taijie, who also sat down to rest, was also helpless. Stop it. The fools below must think that they are a group that has been abandoned.
Don't stop it...
Can these idiots climb up to it with their looks?
Looking at the longer and longer queue, Taijie felt suspicious, and many people had the intention of quitting.
But who would be willing to retreat at this time...?
Taijie took another look at the female cultivator who had distanced herself from them, gritted his teeth and said, "Everyone, hurry up."
"..."
Yue Gui, who was walking in front of it, was so tired that his four paws were trembling.
It's not that it doesn't want to go faster, it's just that it really can't crawl.
Gu Chengshu, who was taking a rest again, saw the last group of Yuegui climbing up the stairs, and couldn't help but turn around and look at the palace again, which was getting closer.
It is still on the same line as the moon.
If she climbs a little higher, will the bigger one help her cover the moon's light?
Gu Chengshu went up again.
After a while, she really couldn't see the covered moon anymore.
The palace was bigger than she originally imagined, and of course there were more.
The three-story building seemed to be hidden in the clouds and mist, but it was previously obscured by the light of the moon, so it was not visible.
Gu Chengshu swallowed and tried to move forward again.
"Quick! Climb quickly, the back is collapsed."
Several screams came from below.
Gu Chengshu's hand shook and she relieved her strength on the spot. The two steps she originally planned failed, and she only climbed one step.
But when he turned around, he saw the Moon Slayers crawling behind, all moving forward desperately.
The steps behind them seemed to have become solid for a moment and were all collapsing.
This this?
Was her crow mouth really right?
Gu Chengshu didn't dare to delay any longer. She grabbed the ball and stuffed it into her arms. This time, she climbed five steps.
The screams and howls behind him were all filled with sadness.
Without looking back, she knew that Youyuegui was unlucky and fell from the air.
Hiss~
Gu Chengshu was afraid of pain and didn't want to fall beyond recognition, so she could only try her best to move up again.
At this time, all Yuegui are working hard to move up.
They have no way out.
After the Forbidden Spirit and Forbidden Consciousness, even if the body is strong, if it climbs hundreds of feet, once it falls...
Anyway, none of the clan members who fell made a sound.
They can't climb as high as they can.
Whenever he thinks of this, Tai Jie can't control his hands and heart shaking.
But it didn't dare to stop.
No one dared to stop.
Although it sounds like the steps at the back are collapsing a little slower, looking at it now, as long as they become solid, they will probably all collapse.
What if it were to materialize at its feet?
"Ah~"
The tribesman in front of him slipped and fell down in front of Tai Jie.
I was so frightened that I fell down on the steps on the spot.
Its two paws groped both sides of the steps. Alas, it was only three feet.
Taijie tried hard to adjust his breathing and wanted to climb up the stairs.
However, it suddenly couldn't touch the top one.
It should be able to touch the third one, but now it can only sense the one under its feet and the one in front of it.
A large amount of sweat fell off Taijie's head.
"It's not good," came the trembling voices of the tribesmen above, "I, I, there are no steps above me."
"Me me, me too."
"Let's... don't move."
There are only two that they can touch.
Can't move.
It's not okay to go back.
There is no focus behind you.
Gu Chengshu, who tried to retreat, did not dare to retreat.
Now she was just glad that these two steps did not materialize and collapse on her.
otherwise……
Gu Chengshu was sitting on the steps that could not reach the sky or the ground, looking at the panicked Yuegui below. Of course, she was not in a relaxed mood.
By the way, why is she climbing this building so well?
Didn't she go to Yuegui to assassinate a few people?
"Don't move, don't move, sit still, sit still."
Taijie gasped, "This step... should only appear at a specific time. Now that that time has passed, there will definitely be another one tomorrow."
But tomorrow - when will it come?
Xiao Long at the front covered his thumping heart and did not dare to move.
"Tuan Tuan, hide it."
Gu Chengshu didn't dare to move, but waiting for death was not her style.
After she dug out one cassock, she pulled out another one, and worked hard to tie them into knots to prevent them from leaking.
After half a day, a simple parachute made of six cassocks was made.
"Okay, we won't fall to death for sure."
Gu Chengshu put on her thick fur cloak again and turned to look at the floating palace that was already visible.
If the stairs reappear tomorrow, she
She might not be able to climb very far. From the looks of it... she might have to spend several days, or even ten days, climbing upstairs.
"Tuan Tuan, I will also make another one."
Seeing the little head sticking out, Gu Chengshu finally took out another cassock for safety reasons.
At this time, she was really lucky that Uncle Yu had prepared many clothes.
